Over the last nine years, it has been my privilege to walk with people through difficult seasons of life.

I am passionate about helping people uncover and heal emotional wounds contributing to anxiety, depression, and anger. In addition, through assessments and exploration, I can help you discover the life patterns that have kept you "stuck". Awareness of these patterns is a step toward freedom. One way to discover these patterns is through the use of the Enneagram. I am an Enneagram CP Certified Professional. See information about a group currently forming below.

As a mom, I understand the agony of seeing your child struggle. It's hard when kids become clingy, tearful, or exhibits rude and disrespectful behavior. Anxiety weighs them down and sometimes they act out. I've faced the judgmental looks and heard the unkind remarks while trying to get through the grocery store. I want you to know that I discovered a way to change all that.

I have a passion to assist you in overcoming adversity and facing your mental health concerns. Empathy, open-mindedness, and communication are my core values. My path to counseling began very young through my own personal experience with loss of life, which lead me to the path to helping others. I understand that missing our loved ones and being depressed is normal, and the key to grieving is to find a way to form a new relationship with the one we lost. In addition, through my collegiate student-athlete experience I understand the delicate balance of being a student-athlete, including the pressures that come along with it.
